| It's a common problem. It's not a stuck cable but carbon buildup on the throttle valve that needs to be periodically cleaned. The valve is located on the long air tube near the back of the engine where the flexible hose supplying combustion air connects to. | |
| My new camry shifted real bad from the time we took delivery. First it shifted to fast on normal acceleration, and it would hesitate and buck between 2nd and 3rd gear. First i was told this is normal because of the new 5spd auto trans and the shift by wire technology. I got lucky and brought the car back for the cowl rattle, which did fix the noise, and told them again about the shifting issue and was lucky enough to have the buck happen when the tech was test driving. First they did a update on the computer and told me to drive it and see what happens. It did not work. It bucked pulling out of the dealership. I came back 3 days later and they got Toyota involved. They were told to erase the computer and reprogram it as if it was a new car, and also to test drive for 15 miles. So far it works great, i hope this helps others who are complaining about the trans. | |
| There is a solution. Have them replace the transmission, because my 03 SE 4 cylinder transmission shifts very smoothly | |
| Four months ago my wife purchased a 2004 camry XLE with the "advanced airbag detection system". The problem is every time I sit in the passenger seat the S.E.S airbag warning light come on. I've been told that when this happens the passenger's airbag is disabled. After six attempts to repair the problem Toyota service rep (Harry Peterson) has acknowledged that the problem is the design of the seat sensors. There is a problem with them when a tall or heavy person sit in the seat. And I am 6'2" and 300 lbs. What I would like to know is the anybody else out there that has the same problem? And if so has it been resolved? | |
| My 04 XLE does the same thing, but i was told this system monitors if someone is sitting in the passenger seat. My understanding is when the light is on the airbag is activated. If a small child were to sit in the seat, the light should not go on because you do not want the airbag activated. If there was on a driver in the car when a front end accident happened, only the driver's airbag would deploy. | |

I can hear one or two clicking sounds when I turn the wheel. I couldn't believe that only after 7000 miles, the bearing could be going bad. Does anyone has similar problem?

In reply to #2114 2001 CAMRY V6 ENGINE GASGETS REPAIR, I am not familiar with a head gasket secret warranty. There is a policy that covers engine sludge (or gel) for a period of 8 years from the original purchase date, unlimited miles. It covers the 2001 4 cyl. and V-6 Camry's as well as several other models and years.

Dear friends in this discussion board, I am having a problem for my new 2004 Toyota camry limited edition LE model. I had this car for about two months, and had only driven 600 miles so far. I noticed that there were quite a lot of water leaking from the bottom of car after I drive for a while. I did not turn the AC or defrost on. What could be the problem ? If someone could give me some guides, I would appreciate it very much. Thanks a lot. Jay |
